Once you have logged into Banner, follow these <BR>instructions to start the registration process.
In the Main Menu, click on the Student and <BR>Financial Aid link.
In the Student and Financial Aid Screen click on <BR>the Registration link.
In the Registration Screen, click on the Add or <BR>Drop Classes link.
Select the registration term and click on Submit.
In the Add or Drop Classes Screen, scroll down <BR>to the bottom of the screen and click on Class <BR>Search to open the Look Up Classes Screen.
To start a search, in the Look Up Classes <BR>Screen, you may choose any combination of <BR>fields to narrow your search,
but you must select at least one Subject.
To search by Subject, scroll through the subject <BR>list until you find the desired course,
or a quicker way is to click in the subject search <BR>box, type the first letter of the course name and <BR>scroll to the course.
For example, suppose you want to search for all <BR>English classes.
Click in the subject search box and type E. Scroll <BR>down the list until you find English and select it.
Scroll to the bottom of the screen and click on <BR>Class Search.
You will see a list of available courses. Notice, <BR>that a search by subject only may give you a very <BR>large search result.
At the bottom of the screen you may see a <BR>message to limit your search. In this instance, <BR>250 of 420 courses are displayed.
If you see that all results could not be displayed. <BR>You will need to narrow your search by including <BR>additional search fields.
To narrow your search, return to the Look Up <BR>Classes Window by clicking the Back button at <BR>the top of the screen.
In the Look Up Classes screen, you can narrow <BR>your search by clicking the reset button to clear <BR>all previously selected search fields
or you can modify your previous search by <BR>selecting additional fields.
One way to narrow your search once you have <BR>selected a subject is to enter the course number.
You can type the exact course number or just the <BR>first number.
For example: entering English 102 would find an <BR>exact match while entering English 1 would find a <BR>range of courses such as English 101, 102 etc.
In this search example, we will type 1 in the <BR>course number search box.
You can narrow your search even further by <BR>entering other search options such as session <BR>and or days.
In the session search box, select an option such <BR>as Day to search for all day classes.
In the Days check box, although you can select <BR>any combination of days, if you select days that <BR>the course is not held, you may not see results.
For best results, select only one day.
For example, select Monday. All courses that <BR>meet on Monday will be displayed plus any <BR>additional days the courses meet.
Click on Class Search.
In this example, a search for English 1, Day, <BR>Monday, displays all English 100 courses
such as English 101, 102 and so on that meet <BR>during the day on Monday.
Notice that the other days the courses meet also <BR>display.
Another way to search for courses is by a <BR>specific course attribute category.
To search by Attribute Type, click on the back <BR>button to return to the Look Up Classes screen.
If you want to clear previous search selections, <BR>click on the Reset button.
Suppose you want to search for all Social and <BR>Behavioral Sciences courses.
Click in the Attribute type box. Type S and scroll <BR>down to select Social and Behavioral Sciences.
A search by course attribute type may display a <BR>very large search result. To limit your search, <BR>select additional search fields.
For example click in the Session box and select <BR>evening to search for all Social and Behavioral <BR>Sciences classes that are held in the evening.
Then, click on class search.
Notice that the courses are displayed by the <BR>different categories that match the Social and <BR>Behavioral Sciences Requirements.
For example, you will see African American <BR>Studies, Anthropology, Economics, Education, <BR>Finance, and other related courses.
